The behavior has changed already under jaunty: now working on battery power always allows for medium brightness, and only not touching the keyboard for a while dims the screen completely. I guess that is the desired behavior. I didn't notice this change since I haven't tried working on battery for a while.
I would like to be able to bring the screen even on battery power to 100% brightness, but I guess not being able to do so is also desired behavior and my wish would be more a thing for a whishlist. In my opinion, this bug can be marked as fixed (I haven't checked on karmic though) Scott Howard schrieb: > Good job debugging this, those logs are helpful. > > The issue that you reported is one that should be reproducible with the > live environment of the Desktop CD of the development release - Karmic > Koala.
